Causes and Solutions to the Yellow Light of Death
The yellow light of death is usually due to the solder contact failing under the RSX chip in the PS3. Once the contact is repaired the system will usually work again. Our technicians at Atlantis are experts at diagnosing and repairing the yellow light of death quickly and efficiently. Using the best equipment and methods available, we can usually repair the yellow light of death in about 90% of cases.
Reasons for Professional Repairs and Downfall of Heat Gun Repairs
You should take your yellow light of death issue to a professional repair shop, especially if your console has been “repaired” by a shop with a heat gun instead of appropriate tools and processes. Heat gun repairs will usually cause additional issues with the board warping, which can mean the contacts will not bond again correctly. When another repair has been done correctly due to heat, the chance of future repairs working is usually greatly reduced. At Atlantis, we strive to use the best methods, with the proper equipment, so your odds of repair are greater.
Recognition of Symptoms and Testing in Detail
The yellow light of death can be recognized by your console beeping three times and shutting off. Another symptom is the LED becoming yellow. When you bring a console into Atlantis for repair, our technicians will detect the fault before repairing it. We do not simply repair your console. Instead, we will run the console for many hours to ensure that the problem is fixed before returning the console to you.
